PRACTICE AREAS > Litigation > Insurance

In today’s world, insurance is a necessity for the many risks we face in business and our personal lives.  Businesses have it.  Individuals have it.  Insurance protects your life, your property, and your business or livelihood.  And, if you don’t have insurance to protect your assets and business, you probably should.  But, when insurance disputes arise, it is important to be represented by knowledgeable attorneys, with experience in the field of insurance law. 

Earp Cohn lawyers are experienced and knowledgeable about insurance law and litigation.  Insurance litigation is a major area of practice for our litigation team.  We represent insurers in claims against them by policyholders.  We often are retained by insurers to represent policyholders in litigation covered by their insurance policies.  And we are sometimes retained by policyholders to seek a legal determination of the scope of their insurance coverage.  Whether it is a suit regarding the scope of coverage in a property or casualty matter, environmental damage, or a case involving life or disability insurance coverage on an individual, we have seasoned attorneys who are familiar with these issues and handle these cases on a regular basis.  At Earp Cohn, we work to get a client’s dispute settled, when it is in the client’s interests, but we stand ready to go to trial when necessary.
